Hi I have a 8V powered traditional ring. The problem is that it is a little bit too quite. Is there an opition to attache something to the wires in order to create push notification in Homey so I’ll know even if I haven’t hear a sound?

If you’re not afraid to tinker this could probably be achieved with an ESP32 or similar. They cost like $5 or so and can be programmed to do a whole range of things. Even logging door bell rings when you are not at home.

Just put a vibration sensor on it. It works.

That’s what i have done too. Works great!

Even on a so called bim-bam? I’ll try, thanks!

Amazing. Will try with Aqara. Big thanks!

You mean a vibration sensor right on the loudspeaker of the doorbell? Is the sound from the bell generating so much vibration for it to trigger actually? :thinking:

I think we’re talking about native mechical ringers and ding-dong things. But I think it works, sticked to a speaker. Not tested myself, but someone put a vibration sensor near the mechanical ringer and it works. [Screenshot_20210421-223453_Facebook]
